Jon is an extremely personable and engaging therapist. He has a quick understanding of the situation, listens well, and then offers simple frameworks to allow you to recognise the problem yourself. While everyone's situation is unique, Jon is supportive by demonstrating that others have faced very similar issues in the past and highlights how best to resolve them, working with you to find the right approach for your specific scenario.

I have found Jon to be professional, adaptable and easy to engage with on terms that work for me. He's an astute listener and is adept at reading between the lines and identifying root causes or issues that may not be obvious. Very much enjoy and value the time I spend with Jon and find his provocations to be extremely helpful.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
